Foundation Vision

Those Who Tell the Stories...Shape the Culture.

From the beginning, the Long Beach International Film Festival has encouraged an awareness and understanding of the powerful influence of the film medium over the molding of ideas and beliefs within our culture and society.

As Film Festival Promoters and Filmmakers, we feel an overwhelming responsibility toward the types of films we present to our Film Festival audience. Through the Long Beach International Film Festival, we hope to encourage, highlight, and nurture those works that exemplify a positive and responsible contribution to our industry, community, and society.
